The Gloom is a faux true crime fiction podcast and audio drama — starring Tobin Bell (Jigsaw, Saw franchise) as Dr. Lasher — eight episodes investigating the Night of the Filmore Four, an unsolved 1993 case that has haunted Queens, New York for thirty years. On November 16th, 1993, four teenagers disappeared from the Filmore Psychiatric Facility in Queens Village. One body was recovered. Two children were never found. The psychiatrist on duty that night, Dr. Darlene Harrington, was taken in for questioning and has refused to speak publicly ever since. Podcast host Samantha Williams is reopening the case. Following a trail of police interrogation tapes, 911 calls, autopsy recordings, and therapy session recordings that should never have been made public, Samantha inches toward the truth — a truth that is stranger and more terrifying than any of the official explanations. A faux true crime fiction podcast in eight parts. For fans of Serial, Limetown, Darknet Diaries, Archive 81, and The Black Tapes — and for anyone who has ever believed that some cases stay cold for a reason. Starring Tobin Bell (Jigsaw — Saw franchise) as Dr. Lasher and Kerry Wieder — who brought Wendy Morrow to life in Violet Hour Media's In Another Room — as Dr. Darlene Harrington. Written by Michael Ryan Assip and Peter Lancucki. Directed by Frank Merle. Executive produced by Cassie Jozefov. A Violet Hour Media production.

    1. In Medias Res — Tobin Bell (Saw) Stars in a Faux True Crime Podcast About Four Missing Children

    Faux true crime fiction podcast The Gloom begins here — starring Tobin Bell (Jigsaw, Saw franchise) as Dr. Lasher. A police interrogation tape from November 16th, 1993. Detective Filardo is questioning Dr. Darlene Harrington, a 38-year-old child psychiatrist working for the City of New York. He wants to know where the kids are. She says she does not know. And then something interrupts the interview — a sound on the tape that has no explanation — and Dr. Harrington starts screaming that it has found her. Podcast host Samantha Williams has been given access to the tape. This is the opening episode of her eight-part investigation into the Night of the Filmore Four — the night four teenagers disappeared from a Queens psychiatric facility and nobody has told the truth about since. Written by Michael Ryan Assip and Peter Lancucki. Directed by Frank Merle. Executive produced by Cassie Jozefov. A Violet Hour Media production.

    2. Bedtime Stories — A 911 Call From a Girl in a Trance and the Sound of Someone Dying Behind Her

    Faux true crime fiction podcast The Gloom surfaces its first piece of suppressed evidence — a 911 call that was never entered into the official record. Alicia Higgins was one of the four teenagers at Filmore on the night of November 16th. Her 911 call was placed at 2:04am. She speaks in a voice that is eerily calm, almost like a trance, while behind her something — or someone — is in agony. The call lasts eleven minutes. Samantha has been given a copy by a source who will not identify themselves. The police maintain the call does not exist. Written by Michael Ryan Assip and Peter Lancucki. Directed by Frank Merle. Executive produced by Cassie Jozefov. A Violet Hour Media production. LISTENER WARNING: This program includes depictions of death and subject matter that may be upsetting for some listeners.

    3. Cut Your Nose — The Psychiatrist's Tapes Reveal a Teenage Boy Being Consumed by Something

    Faux true crime fiction podcast The Gloom enters the therapy room — and the recordings that Dr. Harrington kept of her sessions with Roland, one of the Filmore Four. Roland was fourteen years old when he arrived at Filmore. Dr. Harrington's session tapes document his deterioration over the weeks leading up to the Night of the Filmore Four — a deterioration that does not match any clinical diagnosis on record. He is afraid of something. The something has a hum. And by the final tape in the sequence, Roland is no longer entirely himself. Written by Michael Ryan Assip and Peter Lancucki.

    4. Spite Yr Face — The Autopsy of Kiara Walford and the Cause of Death Nobody Will Put in Writing

    Faux true crime fiction podcast The Gloom obtains the autopsy recording of Kiara Walford — the one member of the Filmore Four whose body was recovered. Kiara Walford was sixteen years old. The official cause of death listed on her death certificate has been contested by the medical examiner who conducted the autopsy, who has since retired and declined all media requests. Samantha has obtained the original recording of the autopsy — a micro-cassette recording made by the examiner during the procedure. What he says on the tape does not match what was filed with the city. Written by Michael Ryan Assip and Peter Lancucki. Directed by Frank Merle. Executive produced by Cassie Jozefov.

    5. If You Have Ghosts — A Witness Takes the Stand and Something Else Speaks Through His Voice

    Faux true crime fiction podcast The Gloom reaches the courtroom — and the trial of Bruce Russo, the only adult charged in connection with the Night of the Filmore Four. The trial of Bruce Russo lasted eleven days. On the third day, during cross-examination, something happened on the stand that caused the judge to clear the courtroom and seal the transcript. Samantha has obtained a partial recording of what occurred — a recording in which Bruce Russo's voice changes mid-testimony into something that does not sound like Bruce Russo, and begins answering questions nobody in the courtroom asked.

    6. It's All Come Undone — Dr. Harrington Wakes Up in the Hospital and the Cover-Up Begins

    Faux true crime fiction podcast The Gloom follows Dr. Harrington into the hospital — and finds that the institutional machinery of cover-up is already moving. Dr. Darlene Harrington regains consciousness in a hospital room to find Detective Filardo waiting for her. He wants to know about Bruce Russo. He does not ask about the children. He does not ask about the Gloom. And Dr. Harrington, who has spent years speaking carefully about the Filmore Four, realizes that the conversation she is being offered is not about finding the truth — it is about containing it.

    Faux true crime fiction podcast The Gloom introduces its villain — Tobin Bell (Jigsaw, Saw franchise) as Dr. Lasher, the psychiatrist who replaced Dr. Harrington at Filmore after her sudden absence. Dr. Darlene Harrington is no longer at the Filmore facility. She has been removed without explanation.

The children can hear it in the room. And the thing that has been humming beneath every episode of this series has grown louder. Written by Michael Ryan Assip and Peter Lancucki.
